How to Apply False Lashes Like a ProMaster the art of choosing and applying false lashes -- once and for all -- with this easy-to-follow makeup tutorial |
Ready, Set, Apply
Now, the tricky part -- putting them on:
1. Apply a thin line of glue at the base of your strip lashes, and wait a few seconds so the glue has a chance to get tacky. This will help them adhere more easily.
2. Place the lash on the inner corner first and then attach the outer corner so it sits slightly above the natural lash line -- this "cheats" the lash line and gives the illusion of bigger eyes, says McAdams.
3. Wait two minutes for your lashes to dry, then go over them with a dark liner right at the root of your lashes.
4. Curl your lashes (both real and fake) with an eyelash curler. This reduces tension on your eyelids and makes them feel more comfy, says Chang-Babaian. It also prevents them from drooping and making your eyes look heavy.

I needed these tips. I wore false eyelashes at Halloween once and received rave reviews. Now I want to wear them more often.

I feel lucky that I do not have to wear false eyelashes. They look nice when applied properly, but they can still ruin your regular lashes.

I tried putting on false lashes before and it was a nightmare. Maybe I'll try again with your tips next time. I do think that a video would have been better though.

Great instructions. Thanks. I've worn individuals for years and decided to try strip. So easy to put on with your help.
